Do you have any friends or neighbors that you think should run for office – or are interested in running winning electoral campaigns? This training is for anyone who wants to level up their electoral organizing skills, whether they are already running for office or considering doing so, or want to support or staff climate candidates' campaigns.

Complete the short form on this page to nominate someone for the training! Once you submit the form, we'll follow up with the person you submitted to make sure they have all the info about the training. Feel free to submit this form multiple times to nominate more than one person (there's no limit!).

This is a free, virtual training that will run in spring 2026 (exact dates TBA). During the trainings, we’ll cover the mechanics of planning and executing an election campaign, as well as climate messaging and the opportunities to pass local climate policy. We'll also have opportunities to discuss our learnings with local elected officials from across the country. Sessions will include:

• Building your base and setting up your get-out-the-vote strategy

• Voter contact methods backed by research

• Fundraising, social media, campaign tech, and much more!
